Calendars & Schedules

School Closures & Late Starts

Kent School District has several different methods of notification when school is closed or delayed due to inclement weather.

Automated Phone Calls

Automated phone calls will be made early in the morning to the primary household number(s) for each family. Please ensure your contact information is current in the Skyward system.

In addition, it is recommended to provide a telephone option that will operate during a power outage. (Many landlines are now bundled with cable services and do not work during power outages.)

Emails

Emails will be sent to all parents/guardians and KSD accounts. If you are a parent or guardian, please ensure you have an email address saved in the Skyward system.

Kent School District Mobile App Notifications

Notifications will be sent through the Kent School District mobile app directly to mobile phones. If you haven’t already, download the free app from the AppStore or Google Play. Be sure to enable push notifications to receive the alerts.

District and School Website Alerts

Alerts will be posted on the Kent School District and school homepages.
